Zaksha review
A focused family filter for schedules, category blocking, and activity history across major platforms.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Zaksha is a managed DNS-based parental-control service for families in India. Parents manage filtering rules, device enrollment, recurring bedtime and study-hour schedules, and activity history from a web dashboard. It covers iPhone, iPad, Android, Windows, and Mac devices, with filtering across Wi-Fi and mobile data. Category controls include adult content, gambling, social media, streaming, gaming, ads, trackers, and AI assistants. The service also states that it does not read messages, track location, or retain home activity history beyond seven days.
The published Home plan starts at ₹249 per month and includes per-child time schedules and rules, all content categories, a custom block list, seven-day activity history, and support for iPhone, Android, Mac, and Windows. A 14-day free trial is available, while the product does not have a free plan. Home also includes one household plan and five devices, with annual billing available. Enterprise adds group policies, bulk enrollment, per-user activity reports, a dedicated isolated instance option, support, and an SLA. The listed monthly price excludes taxes.
Zaksha’s strongest fit is families that want broad category filtering rather than location monitoring. It blocks services in apps and browsers, supports custom website rules, and includes tamper alerts, WhatsApp alerts when filtering stops, and a fresh-phone Android setup intended to prevent uninstallation. Those controls are useful for households managing multiple device types and recurring routines. Families specifically seeking location tracking should choose another option, and buyers wanting a free plan may find the paid-only structure less suitable. Zaksha is a focused choice for cross-platform content controls, schedules, and short-term activity visibility.
